STANWELL Selected Briar 78

Denmark, 1960s

A very nice lightweight and rare Stanwell pipe from the registration era. The shape number 78 was created by unsurpassed Siksten Ivarsson in 1950s. But since there is a crown on the stem, then the pipe was made a bit later, in 1960s. Usually Stanwell offered all shapes both with smooth and sandblasted finish, but the 78th was only smooth and was not produced anymore after the registration period. Thus the pipe is a real rarity, moreover it’s the “hand made” of “selected briar”!

The pipe markings are “STANWELL \ REGD. № 969-48 \ HAND MADE”, “MADE IN DENMARK”, “SELECTED BRIAR \ 78”. The length is 14.0 cm, bowl’s hight is 4.1 cm. External dimensions of the bowl are 3.2 x 4.2 cm, internal diameter is 1.8 cm. The depth is 3.2 cm and this pipe weights 31 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The chamber has been protected with the break-in coat.

Denmark, 1950s The Danish pipe from the most famous Stanwell period. The registration number was obtained by the company in 1948 and Stanwell pipes were stamped with it until the early 1970’s. Absence of the crown over the “S” on the stem prompt that the pipe was made still before the 1960s. The pipe is…

In other words the pipe will be a pride reason for any collector.

Denmark 1950-60s A really exceptional Stanwell freehand pipe from the registration era! The registration number was assigned to Stanwell in 1948 and was stamped on Stanwell pipes until the beginning of the 1970s. The pipe doesn’t bear any shape number what is very uncommon for Stanwell. Absence of this number may mean that the pipe…
